My name is Justin Klein-Edgerton. I am a 33-year-old deaf man residing in Hopkinton MA. I grew up all for 28 years in California with two families, worked as a teacher, and moved to Phoenix shortly after. It wasn't for two years before moving in Massachusetts. There was a question that one psychology professor asked me that I would never forget. He said that there must be one unique, interesting statement about us that define our life. He asked us to give that statement when introducing myself. I thought long and hard when he mentioned it. He only requested that we do not explain until if there was anyone who wants to know more, to ask after class. I did not want to mention my birth situation or talk about it, but after some thinking, it always comes back to that one thought. I felt that I could not not mentioned it at all. When it was my turn, I said my name and I said, "My life was changed forever before it even started." He looked at me perplexed. "I am sorry, I never heard anyone said that before. Can you elaborate?" knowing that he broke his own rule. I hesitated. Other people wanted to know. There is a long version that I want to make it a book about my journey with what happened with my birth someday. In order to do that, I need to be known by people around me, make connections, and build up my reputation positively. The past few years in my 20s were not something I was proud of doing. I aim to change that; to be a better person. For now, I decided to write a blog about my thoughts, my experiences, short stories that inspire me in those moments, etc. I want you, the reader, to help me improve to be a better writer by giving good criticism, feedbacks, compliments, advice, comments, etc., and that I would want to share what was on my mind and stories I had in my head to the world. With your help, I can achieve my goal of writing that memoir someday. This blog would have a theme of inspiration and adoption. I already had a thought about a young adult novel related to adoption that I hope to start the process soon. For now, I am excited to start on this journey with you. View more posts
